Minnesota Twins general manager Thad Levine opened up about the problems within his organization and across Major League Baseball when it comes to hiring practices within front offices.
Speaking on a front-office diversity roundtable (h/t ESPN's Joon Lee) on Tuesday, Levine explained why hiring practices have become "flawed" in the sport:
"We've become too reliant on the fact that there are so many candidates that desire to work in baseball. Unintentionally, we've become complacent. Our applicant pool that's flooded our office has been filled with a lot of talent. It's been in large regard homogeneous.
